Report - Hinckley police station and court Aug 2016

[mattdonut]

The POLICE STATION 1937 Corner of Hollycroft and Upper Bond Street. The County Council Standing Joint Committee of 12 Nov 1930 stated that the existing police station and court were inadequate to requirements. The county architect had submitted plans for alterations to the police station and courthouse on Stockwell Head, but it was eventually resolved that a scheme be submitted for new police buildings on a more convenient site (Hinckley Times, 14 Nov 1930). anyway pictures

we have an old police station just down the road from us but we darent try and go in as, well... It's the police?!

You obviously didn't get put off by that though? Did you worry about cctv or anything?

It was good to finally see the place, shame the courtroom doesn't have much in it but still nice.

nice report, great photos, still looks quite clean for an empty building
